Glad to see some sense emerging in this thread, I must agree with you on the issue of GPS, it is not really the most practical solution for the situation (mind you if Intel thought this was another plan that they would like to back as an industry standard, however poor, then the point would be moot).

But I would also like to make a point to the discustingly uneducated jingoistic drawl which I read previously. That whole nonsense about US intervention in the world wars, a fine example of US ignorance and propaganda if you ask me, but of course you wouldn't because I might contradict the television. I notice a lot of posts on slashdot in general which go a long way to highlighting the american ideal, and thier distance from reality. Now I am not responding to the 'brit bashing' because I am not a brit, but I do believe that it might do the US public some good to follow a couple of these pointers:
1 - there is an extra 'i' after the 'n' in aluminium maybe you should use it?
2 - Whatch less TV and read more books!!!
3 - Bear in mind that the US economy only stays afloat due to the vast amount of money borrowed from China (yes, you know, the communist state).
the list could go on but I would rather not, and before you dismiss this and say I am speaking rubbish, maybe you might just think on it for a second or two?
